Not much you can do with the injectors other than running some Redline SL1 through to keep the clogs away. Pepboys carries it.The good ole Ethanol we have here in Texas eats em up pretty good.

Not sure about the radio but the one time my ABS light came on the ABS pump was buzzing under the hood after shutting the engine off.A few taps from my leatherman stopped the buzzing and the light hasn't came on since

thanx for the help. got those probs fixd. bt last night it broke 2 or more piston rods. idk wut happnd. it was full of oil. my guess is that the oil pump went out. now the oil is leaking out the back and side of the motor. lookd for a rod sticking out bt to much crap in the way. was driving and it started loosing power so i gave her some gas, it made the burt rod bearing clatter then ...boomb! ti died and the dash lit up. i towd it home and it will start but only go up to 1 grand or so on the floor. and clatters BAD. o well! Im gna sell the body. lol im 19 and soo tired of cars breaking down on me. out of 23 cars and trucks iv had mabe 3 good ones. how much is the care worth with a toasted engine?

Sounds like either you dont know how to drive, or dont know how to choose a reliable old car if you have already killed over 20 cars at your age.Master of disaster.....may want to stick with a Schwinn with your luck!!! Are you related to "unknown 007" ????
